♡ Increasing traffic on your blog ♡
April 10, 2019l
Blogging is so exciting and I think it’s so fun to write posts for people to enjoy and read them - but when no one is reading your posts it can be really disheartening so i try keep my traffic boosted all the time.
It’s not as easy as you think - blogging can be so hit and miss ice noticed, sometimes blowing up for no reason which is even more exciting!
As I’m not a huge blogger compared to who I read but I’ve found these tips help my blog stay afloat with consistent views.
As a blogger you need to devote so much time to promoting yourself and your post so you can l get yourself out there in the blogging community as it’s so huge and so it’s important for you to dive right in! Use social media like twitter, Pinterest and instagram to get your posts out there by sharing them and people will find your blog and enjoy it leading to them reading most posts
When blogging I find it’s so important to keep a constant flow of content! I love having new posts to read by my favourite bloggers and seeing them constantly posting makes me wanna read them me. I know I always try be original with posts or just stay in the same niche to get people to want to read your posts continuously and will become loyal readers. You do notice such an increase in views when it’s from loyal readers and they interact too
Joining blogger support places like Pinterest boards or twitter threads are so amazing! They are a way to read people’s posts and find new bloggers but also put yourself out there. I find the more of these I do, I can see my traffic growing though people checking out my posts from them and it is such a good way to support other bloggers too.
Getting them views on your posts helps motivate you so much - you feel like you’re trapped in a dead end when you don’t have a steady view set - increasing traffic organically is so important and can determine the mood for the blog and I wanted to help people in ways I do!

I find it hard to get my blog views up some months but I find joining Facebook groups for people with like minded interests helped me! I post some of my posts to a women with ADHD group and Facebook sends a lot of traffic my way! x

DeleteThank you for sharing love :) Blogging really is hit or miss! I try to keep my views above 100 every day and it's so disheartening when I don't meet it.
ReplyDeleteKeep pushing on!

DeleteThanks for sharing, its tough to get viewz on mine.😞 im definitely looking up some more support groups.
ReplyDeletei completely agree and i feel the same way too x
DeleteGreat tips Bailey! When I first started blogging I was afraid to use Instagram because I thought it would be really tough and it wouldn't drive traffic to my blog. I was so wrong - it's helped so much! Thanks for sharing x

i have never tried these so i will have to x
DeleteGreat tips Bailey, found you on The Clique's twitter share thread. Joining forces with other small bloggers for comments and shares really does help! If you would like, please feel free to join my Facebook Group where I'm posting share threads to help us all spread the love! It's fairly new, so share threads are only on Fridays right now, but as the group grows I'll be increasing the number. https://facebook.com/groups/connect.share.grow (All blogging genres are welcome!)
ReplyDeletei am so glad you did - it proves my point! thank you x
DeleteI totally agree the boost in feels from getting views is awesome - I feel like I am reaching people and although I'm still new I like to see my traffic being a split of roughly 50/50 new and returning so that I know people want to come back and read what I write.
ReplyDeleteI pretty much rely on twitter to grow my traffic for now, I might branch out more in future but I'm happy with slow and organic growth.
i completely agree and i feel the same way too x
DeleteAgreed - getting a boost in views and followers is such a good and satisfying feeling! These are great tips to make it happen. Thank you very much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteknow - i am glad it helps x
DeleteI am still trying to get the hang of Pinterest. I need to put more effort in in that area and I find Instagram so thickle I've been put off it with so many follow unfollows!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing.

ReplyDeletegood luch - i am so hit and miss too x
DeleteI definitely agree with you on Pinterest boards - especially group boards. They're a key place to drive traffic to your blog at the moment. I find Facebook is brilliant too, although it is hard to get people to notice the posts at the very beginning! xx

Great tips! I'm still trying to get the hang of Pinterest as a way of promoting my blog, though. I've started to make Pinterest graphics with Canva, but it's definitely a learning curve. And I completely agree with Twitter threads- it's a great way to engage and find new blogs and readers!

These tips are amazing! I have certainly found that Pinterest makes a great difference in increasing blog traffic. I'm still trying to invest in making the most of Pinterest groups too.
